TL;DR - I think Kabayel should fight Justis Huni next to keep busy and then get the winner of Wardley/Dubois later. Then Usyk would be forced to fight him in a unification/undisputed bout. Also is Kabayel wearing the same shorts every fight?
——————————————————
Coming off of a quick TKO dismantling of Damian Knyba back in January, I’m itching to see The Body Snatcher back in action. I would imagine that he’s fresh and ready to go himself, and I’m sure he wants a title shot as his next bout, especially being ranked number 2 in the world and being mandatory status for God knows how long.
Problem is…Usyk, who carries 3 of the 4 relevant belts, doesn’t seem intetested in the fight, and Wardley is occupied with Dubois at the moment. Now I’m 100% sure we don’t want Kabayel to go the \[old\] Benavidez route and sit around and wait for the superstar \[Usyk\] to give him a shot, especially after hearing that horrible 3 fight pre-retirement plan.
It would be favorable for him to take someone in the top 10 next but I honestly feel like he should take on Justis Huni (maybe July/August timeframe) who’s number 20 in the world according to Boxrec. Two technical masters going at it where Huni is quick to use his feet to not sit there like a punching bag getting his body tore up; and Kabayel who specializes in ripping the body, potentially slowing Huni down and maybe finishing him later. Huni looked great against Wardley and was winning until he wasn’t lol. But now he’s coming fresh off of a win against Frazer Clarke and I would personally say that Huni is defintely World Level if not knocking at the door.
If Kabayel wins that, then he should get the winner of Wardley/Dubois (hopefully Wardley, would be better for the sport if he won) later on towards the end of the year instead of Usyk getting the winner.
After that Usyk would be almost forced to take the fight because 1) he wants Undisputed again, and 2) he stated he wants the winner between Wardley/Dubois but if Kabayel takes them out, it only makes sense to face the man who beat the man.
So who would you guys like to see Agit Kabayel fight next?
Also completely random question but is Kabayel wearing the same shorts every fight (the white and red ones) or are they all slightly different? Lol
